I search for the word RadioStack, but I just want to now what it does, and what it is neede for :?:
I guess you want to use the XDA also a telephone ???
In the end the radiostack is the firmware for the telephone inside the pda
RadioStack
So the radiostack is actually the telephone software?
yes and it's a good idea not to mess with it unless there are issues
because people cant just up and downgrade it as they can with the
rom
and sometimes it gets soo screwed up the xda need to have it exchanged to work as a phone again
The voice of experience?
I just wanted to know what people are about when they are asking for a new radiostack.

Last week, T-Mobile offered me, to make a (so called) upgrade, which means to extend the contract for further 24 month and to get a new device/mobile phone (for low cost). Starting from October T-Mobile offers the old 64MB-MDA with Windows Mobile 2003 in German. The new MDAII will be available at the end of 2003, they said. So I hope the new software (WM2003_DE) will soon be available on T-Mobile's Website (http://t-mobile.de/mda).

Its realy sad that t-mobile is not activly promoting the xda/mda here in usa. infact... most store workers know very little about it here.
i noticed o2.uk even advertise it on tv!
here... even the 24 hours support staff dont know much, they just replace with new unit everytime a software problem arouse.
believe it or not, this is my FIFTH ppc replacement!!
altho i HAVE figured out how to fix the dead media player problem,
they have not! but i still send it back every few months... for a 'scratchless' unit
if they are too dumb to know their product, i dont think there is anythin wrong with using their warranty to my advantage.
anyway... thanx for the reply
Sending it back?
How do you send it back? You call tech support? Give us a play by play, mine has some scratches on it too....
here is what happened.
first for real, but then i abused their ignorance!
my media player stoped working. when i launch it. it closes immediatly!
i called their tech support... they had me reset and try stuff, but nothin worked. so, naturaly, they'll say, we'll send a replacement.
but their replacement developed the same problem, and they
couldnt fix it. not over the phone anyway...
well after 3 replacements... i found out that it was fonix voice dial, and/or viavoice doin it, they were assigning functions to 4 keys, when xda only have 2 usable (calendar and contacts)
so.. media gets lost and closes.
you have to a registry editor to remove the 2 extra key assignment and that will fix it..
BUT! to get to the point... call and tell them u have this problem
and they wont be able to fix it. they'll just replace it!
make sure u reinstall the old 2002 that came with it.
not that they dont know that u changed it! every time u hard reset the device, it sends an SMS "[email protected],version #, date/time"

Does it really do that? Heck just take the SIM out when you do a hard reset.
HAHAHA
Really if they know that then they must have TONS of HTC Resetd from me.
interesting.
I updated my unit to a ROM kitchen version and frankly..
I helped somethings but I still have problems.
Im really waiting on the XDA II.
I hope we see it soon in the US.
Im on my 5th unit also..
But Im actually having problems.
I thought it was T-mobile or something but I got a T610 and I have two sims.
When I have problems calling out (voice or data) I immediately try with my T610. (guess what... no problems)
Im not sure why Im having such bad luck with the units..
maybe its the power supply..
they said they would send another..
I havent seen it yet..
hmm
gotta run ..
I need to call them
BeDammit!
I have an sx56 originally working wiht AT&T. I flashed the rom with 4.05 and it works fine except for some system halts. Also the screen backlight sometimes goes off and never goes on again until I soft rest it.
I live in Egypt and use vodafone coverage. are there any updated roms to use. will the 4.11 4.16 or 4.21 work with me or not. formerly I was using ppc2002 and working fine, and now running 4.05 and still working but with minor problems, can I upgrade or what.
you havn't specified,but it looks like you are using Tmobile's radio stack and rom. I have tried several and came up with the best rom for egypt which is the Qtek RS and rom. if you need anything else contact me on 0122200666
Hi guys ... nice to see few egyptians here
I have a friend needs help. He got a SIM-locked T-mobile XDA with 32 MB RAM orginally loaded with ROM 3.14 and RSU 6.20 for T-mobile.
I managed to unlock his XDA and upgrade the ROM to 4.00.05 ENG. The problem is with the RSU ... I tried the O2 4.21 and Qtek 3.25 but still doesn't get Mobinil signal. I tried to change the band to 900/1800 and 900 only and still no signal (did not try Vodafone though).
Could there be any firm ware problem or I miss a minor actoin.
I would appreciate giving more details on your XDAs and the steps and ROM, RSU versions you used. My mobile is 012-3147866 or e-mail [email protected] ... thanks in advance.
Bye

yes you can upgrade to 4.00.16 and your bug will disappear, however there will still be some annoying stuff as the WM2003 is still a pre-release..but the 4.00.16 doen't bug me like the 4.05.
[/b]bisooo....as for you, not sure if I have good news...but try it on vodafone and tell me what is going on....

Does that mean u actually get vodafone signal ?? ... what RSU version are you using plz
Samer: Thanks for the reply anyway ... actually the XDA dosn't sense any network coverage (manual network selection). So I believe I 'm using the wrong RSU or its firmware is locked for T-mobile. You wrote in your signature that you still have RSU 6.18 ... does that work in Egypt ?!
bisooo,
don't jump to conclusions...first of all let me assure you that most Tmobiles and SimensSX65 and QTeck and ALL XDAs work in Egypt. I have had a couple of them, bought a good number for a couple of friends....they are all working fine. ofcourse unlocked...
So lets start by some simply question first, before I go on with those questions one very important question though did you by any chance while in 'calender' bootloader mode i.e. GSM options ...did you press ANY THING OTHER THAN THE 900 or THE 900/1800 BUTTON??
this is very important....
now.. for the questions:
1. tell me how you unlocked the device...
2. where you bought it from...
3. is it an 'A' model or a 'B' model.
other questions will follow, just plug me in with the headlines firs!..
Dont worry..
Samer,
1st thanks again for your thoughtfulness ... happy to tell you that I finally managed to let it work ... I installed T-mobile RSU 6.24 and it got the signal. I just handed it to my friend 10 minutes ago and he was sooo glade
one last question plz and this is for MY device. I heard lots of complains about ROM 4.00.16 and 4.00.21 ... did you find any value for them over the 4.00.11 one (new features, bugs fixed, ... etc)
thanks again
bisooo,
not sure as I upgraded from 4.05 so I havn't had the chance,, my opinion is as long as it's a prerelease we might as well wait a while and get something more dependable than what is in our hands...but from reviews around i think that the 4.11 is ok...
just curious, how did you unlocke your friends device? any method other than the manipulator?
Also, have you tried to put together a local car kit for the set... I am thinking of making one locally and wanting some advice on the topic..
take care...
Samer,
For unlocking, I upgraded the XDA first to ROM 3.17 from the kitchen ... when it starts, it asks u if you want to unlock then you say yes ... for my device as it had ROM 3.18 I copied the XDAunlock.exe to the device and ran from there.
For the car kit, I believe I saw a topic here talked about converting a cradle to a car kit ... it has all details with pics too!!. Search under the accessories forum.
Good luck ...
hi biso007,
hope I am not disturbing you...but finding someone from Egypt who knows about the device is good...
anyway ..I remeber you upgraded your friend's radio stack to 6.24 ! and rom 4.00.21 . Is he encountering any problems with SMS...I am having the weiredest bug ever with my upgraded rom. I receive SMS but can't send them. when changing the sim card to vodafone isntead..everything works perfect. tried all the tricks of sending from different places and excluding the international code from the message service number....etc. nothing is working..
I would like also to know if you have faced any problems while working around with installing different Radio versions for your friend's device?? did you encounter any difficulty there??
thanks a million, :?
Hello there;
I am very sorry not to reply to you earlier, but I had to travel immediately after my post and could not find the time there to get to the forum and see the replies.
I am very happy to hear from you, and to share each other's experiences about this great device.
I am still running the 4.05, still have the problems but I can live with it. I was considering to upgrade to .16 or 21, but decided to wait till we have a real release not a prerelease versions.
I am running radio version A.20.10, I use vodafone, and I had absolutely no problems with sms. I do not have experience with mobinil in this subject.
By the way I downloaded a midi player and tried to use midi files as ring tones to save ram space, but the sound is very poor. Does anybody know how to improve the sound of midi tones on the xda.
waiting for your replies............

Up to my information, the XDA MIDI player is not capable to play MIDI files that use more than 4 insturments. So, either to get tones in this specs, or if you have the knowledge you can use any MIDI editor and disable some tracks.
Good luck and Welcome back

I wonder how a smart phone running symbian or other operating systems with a total memeory of 4 MB, can play polyphonic and midi tones perfectly and the xda cannot ??
I used a midi editor to reduce the number of tracks, and even used a single track midis and the result is still poor. anymore ideas !!!
radio for qtek working with egypt
have u find radio version works fine with egypt ? please help
i am working on radio 3.23 but signal is weak and when iam in low coverage signal lost and its does come back until i turn off and on network again
I have the T-Mobile PPC and I have upgraded it to the T-Mo WM2003 ROM. I like this ROM due in large part to the windows voice command. Anyways it says under my system settings that my radio is 6.02. I am not getting very good reception, not just on the screen but I'm missing calls and dropping calls as well. Someone else on the forums said to try to find someone in my area whos using a good RS. So does anyone have any help from my area? Or just in general what's worked best for people? I know some are using ATT upgrade as well. Please let me know, thanks.
Go to < http://www.yorch.net/upgrades.htm > He has the latest T-Mobile RSU.
I has the same problem with T-Mobile. My answer was to switch to AT&T.
Good Luck,
Carey
The newest radio stack on yorch.net is unofficial. Is anyone using this unofficial radio stack?
Hey everyone, I had to finally switch to a different phone because I was just dropping calls everywhere. But recently spoke to someone and they advised using a new RSU. Can anyone tell me what RS they seem to get the best service on?
I have been using the Radio Stack version 6.25.02 along with the ROM version 4.00.21 ENG. The combination works best for me on my SX56 with the T-Mobile USA service.

I've been using SX56 too but I live in Asia with diffrent phone service. My ROM v3.17.03 ENG and Radio vA.20.10 and the reception is also weak. Is that combo also can work best in here? I also want to know is it true that using particular RS in diffrent area/service also have diffrent performance, or it is just a same everywhere with any services? Can anyone explained to me? Thanks.
I tracked down RSU 6.25.02 but when I tried to do the upgrade it wouldn't work. I tried a couple different ones actually. I took the 4 files and placed them in the Windows\Startup folder. Then reset with no luck. Then I put the 4 files in the Windows folder and just the exe in the Startup. But still no luck. So finally I tried a different upgrade and that one just put it in perpetual reset mode, so I left my XDA on over night to delete everything and now it seems to be working ok. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong with the upgrade?
This is what I did to upgrade the Radiostack:
1. Copied all the 4 files of Radiostack to device's \windows directory through ActiveSync.
2. Execute RSUpgrade.Exe by double-clicking it.
3. Soft-reset the device once the Radiostack is done.
Your result may vary. Please try it with caution.
thanks pvenkat, I upgraded following your directions and it worked. Unfortunately I think the reception is even worse now than with 6.18!! I'm pretty much just accepting that the XDA on Tmobile (at least in florida) is just garbage reception. But since this is not my first phone and I can pretty much afford to play with it, can anyone else recommend a RSU I could use? I'll try ATT, Rogers, whatever. Just what does everyone find giving them best reception? TIA
hi!
at the moment i have my third herald from o2 germany,also known as xda terra. all three have the same problem:
i use activesync and an exchange server to use push-email via gprs. but my herald decides to not let me communicate with the rest of the world. after the subway and switching the operator (o2/t-mobile d) (too) often it refuses to establish a gprs connection.
it tries, but fails... but best thing to come: it shows me full network coverage, but i can't call anybody, and anybody can call me. after a softrest, everything works again. gprs instantly, and even a normal phone call is possible.... (wohooo ) and that really annoys me, especially having a mobile phone, and nobody can call you even everything seems okay to you.
i already tried it with, and without installing the extended rom. - no change. first i thought it's probably some software i installed, but after the last hard reset i did not install anything. same problem. last idea of the o2 support was a new sim-card. but no change.
in my eyes it's a radio-rom problem, but o2 does not offer any updates, therefore there is no official way to test that. i would love to try out a custom rom and radio update, but because of warranty reasons i won't do that.
my radio-rom version is 02.85.90, does anybody know whether there are such problems with this version? OR, does anybody have any idea how to solve my problem? at the moment im really ******...
thanks in advance!
When i make phone calls on my 8125 I cannot hear anything and have to goto speaker phone. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this? I'm kind of new to this, but I'm not afraid to read if you'll help out.
Maybe....
a hardware issue try another rom....
if not works even that please post on accesories forum
I have the same problem, sometimes works, sometimes not.
Any idea?
